Five Minute Friday: SHE

A day behind, but here is this week's Five Minute Friday.  Head over Here to join in on the fun!

SHE

Her heart is racing.  So many emotions running through her head and heart.

She thinks about her life.  Her life that’s going to change forever.

No more alone.  No more on her own.  No more loneliness.  No more saying goodbye at the end of the night.

She adjusts her dress.  Fidgets with her bouquet.  Takes a deep breath.

Oh, it’s time to go?  Ok.

She’s trying to take in the moment.  This life changing, life altering moment.  The weight of it is almost too heavy to bear.  She’s never wanted anything more in her life. 

The anticipation is building.

They get out of the elevator and head towards him. 

To her life.

Her new life that is waiting.

She sees everyone stand up.

She can’t hear anything.

“Did it start?  Is it playing?”

“Yes, come on.”

She enters.

She sees him.

There he is.  The one the Lord has brought.

Words were said, prayers were prayed, and covenants were made.

It took 23 minutes.

Twenty-three minutes and she became his. 

And he became hers.
